Can anyone please help or advise where I can look for help on this problem.
I have a subform which shows all my outstanding orders. Below it is a calculated field which shows the total weight of all the orders. (Steel Beams)
I would like to be able to highlight the weights on certain orders & show total weight for only these orders. (Similar to the way it can be done in excel)
I have been trying to do it via a query with a Yes/No check box & when I check the orders required the total weight changes. But I cannot get it to work properly as this puts a Yes in the field & the record disappears.
I only want it for a quick reference to save doing mental summing up so don’t want to change or add anything to a field to get answer.
Can anyone give me any ideas please?
I'm new on this forum and I'll appreciate your help.
I have a table that looks like that:
id transaction date a / -20 /01.01.06 a / 500 /01.01.06 a / 500 /01.01.06 a / 230 / 02.01.06 a / -160 / 02.01.06 b / -400 / 01.01.06 b / 450 /01.01.06 b / -20 / 02.01.06 b / 300 / 02.01.06
I want to sum all transaction on each date for each id like: a / 980 / 01.01.06 a / 1050 / 02.01.06 b / 50 / 01.01.06 b / 330 / 01.01.06 ....... I know how to do that in a report, but it's possible to do it directly in a query? I need the data in a new table. Any clue?
right all tables are like a 2d array so does any body know how i can access a field in a row of a table ie like in most languages it goes a bit like this ArrayName(1,1) with ArrayName being the name of the table and that access the first field of the first row. im new to Vba and access 2000 but all i want to do is access the fields in a column of a sub-form displayed as a table add them all up and place the answer in a text box on the main form stick all this in a function so i can run it inside a macro
I have four feilds and im trying to subtract them in a query
This is what the SQL looks liek for two feilds. but i have 4, i was gettign and error when i added other feilds Format(Val([CFR_ALLOWED])-Val([CFR_DEDUCT]),"0000000000") AS [Form Total], im trying to subtract these feilds Here are my feilds Allowed-deduct-other-Coins-Cob
Hi every body. I have an access database that u can see the tables and their reletionship in the link i posted. I would like to web enable this db and would like to get some suggetion on what fields should i allow to be edited and what records should i put delete option for? In order to keep the refrential integerity of the acces db.i be happy to get some feed back from u guys.Thanks
I have used and maintained Access databases in the past but this is my first experience with building a new database. I started by borrowing every Access book my Tech department has on hand and going through them. I have gotten to the point where my tech department can not help me because my question is beyond their own knowledge. I have searched through many different website’s forums and have failed to find what I am looking for. It very well may be out there and I am using the wrong terminology in my searches. The most important piece of information to be stored in my entire database is of course the one that I am having the hardest time figuring out how to set up.
I have a table called “Document Index” which will be a master log of every document that passes through my department. This table has the three fields which are important to my problem/question. 1. The “LOC” field represents the location at which the document was logged. The “LOC” field has a working validation rule that only allows a “D” or “S”, representing the department head’s office or the site office. 2. The “DUO” field value represents the three digit unique number assigned to a project by another department (accounting) 3. The “ID Number” field is a unique number we will assign to each document that is this table’s primary key. It is also where my problem sits. The “ID Number” format has been decided upon by my boss and the rest of the office has already begun stamping these ID Numbers onto every document (which I will have to go through and enter once the database is complete). I am stuck with the format as it is shown in the example below. “ID Number” format is: value of “LOC”- value of “DUO”-number
I know what I want the field to do but I have no idea how to turn my ideas into the proper code to see if it works. So here is my idea of a solution with example values entered. A.Fill in form for “LOC” and “DUO” B.At this point Access would run a behind the scenes search and return all ID #’s that had a that “LOC and “DUO” C.At this point Access would run a behind the scenes search through only those records found in step B to find the highest “ID Number” previously assigned D.At this point Access would make a calculation: adding one (+1) to the “ID Number” found in step C E.At this point Access would insert the result found in step D into the “ID Number” field of my current entry (which until this step the record only contained the “LOC” and “DUO”)
For example: if my first 4 entries had this info: LOCDUOID NumberDocument Description D410D-410-1 Wendy’s Ransom Note S410S-410-1 Priate's Demands D415D-415-1 Cinderella’s Birthday Invitation D410D-410-2 Peter Pan’s Response to Ransom Note
Then I complete step A by typing into the form: LOCDUOID NumberDocument Description D410D-410-1 Wendy’s Ransom Note S410S-410-1 Priate's Demands D415D-415-1 Cinderella’s Birthday Invitation D410D-410-2 Peter's Response to Ransom Note D410
Access would execute step B finding: LOCDUOID NumberDocument Description D410D-410-1 Wendy’s Ransom Note D410D-410-2 Peter's Response to Ransom Note
Access would execute step C finding: LOCDUOID NumberDocument Description D410D-410-2 Peter's Response to Ransom Note
Access would execute step D finding: D-410-2 + 1 = D-410-3
Access would execute step E: LOCDUOID NumberDocument Description D410D-410-1 Wendy’s Ransom Note S410S-410-1 Priate's Demands D415D-415-1 Cinderella’s Birthday Invitation D410D-410-2 Peter's Response to Ransom Note D410D-410-3 Then I would finish entering the information for that record.
I would appreciate any help you can offer, even if just pointing me in the right direction or correct terminology for my searches.
I have a query with below formular which return's all records between Sunday and Saturday
Between Date()-Weekday(Date())+1 And Date()-Weekday(Date())+7
I can get this formular to work when it is looking at one date feild. (Date Received). I would also like it to look at the (date completed) feild so I get all records entered & completed in the previous week. I have tried putting same formular in the OR critiria as well but cannot get it to show all records at same time. What am I doing wrong ???
I have looked everywhere for a solution to this and found none. Its an annoying issue which I would like to get around.
Here is what happens.
I have a union query that gathers rows with different criteria together. The query works execept that the yes/no feild which is set to display as "Yes" or "No" is displayes as 0 for No and -1 for Yes.
I understand that the numeric values are the underlying values of yes/no feilds in access, however they are displayed as yes/no in all my queries and reports execept my union query.
I will include the union query here in case.
The following code is a function that I use to build the union query on the fly based on some parameters. If you are asking why I am doing it like this is becasue I need the rows that have a value for the feild schFeilds(0) to be on top of the final results followed by the rows that don't have any values for the above mentioned feild, and I want them sorted. I found this method to be the only one that gives me the result in the order I need.
I have a numeric value in table A followed by its form, i need to highlight the filed at form if the numeric value becomes same for table A & B this i want to do with the form of table A no matter what the color of highlight is.
I am interested, is it possible to read currently selected (highlighted) row in table?
I know that this is possible to move cursor on concrete field in table via VBA but is it possible to read record number when we move cursor manually (via arrows)?
when i generate a report i intermittently get a page that has the detail section highlighted. The report generates an invoice for each customer selected, a new page for each invoice with a repeating header on each page. I have used the vba to some of the formatting on the page. Usually there are between 20-40 pages generated with each report, or there is an option to print just one invoice. I get the highlight on 1 page on some set of invoices, and other everything works fine.
I can not for the life of me figure out what variables are causing the detail section to be highlighted. Does not repeat on a specific customer, place in the report, or any specific that i can tell. What settings/variables/triggers/events would cause the detail section to become highlighted blue.
Right now i can generate the report, see a blue page(usually after its printed), and the regenerate it and its not there or on a different page. The invoices uploaded are for the same person generated right after each other..
I have a daily report that shows data from previous day for production. When we have new products produced, I would like a field to be highlighted if it is the first time it has come up. I do not want it a unique field just from yesterday, but to analyze the table of all of the production days and highlight if a particular field from a column is unique. Can this be done?
I have a reporting interface providing users with a multitude of reporting options and capabilities. One aspect involves utilizing the ability to allow users to save their settings on the interface due to the number of options provided. One of the aspects revolves around working with listboxes.
Each listbox is pre-loaded every time with a list of items from a master table pertaining to the listbox. The user selects their desired choices, saves*, etc...Once loading a setting, I'm looking to have the listbox pre-loaded (easy) but then auto highlighting the items selected or rather pulled from the user settings table (each listbox has own table for user saving of options). So, if a user selects items Alpha, Beta, Delta, and Falcon from a list of 100 choices, then those 4 items would be saved under that user setting, within the code table (user specific). When they load the setting back onto the user interface, it should pull the 100 choices and auto highlight the 4 items. Hopefully I've explained that properly.
*A user is able to save, save as, load settings, unload settings, etc...from the reporting interface. When a user saves settings, these settings are saved within the user settings tables. Each table varies depending on the nature of the values within the reporting interface. Listboxes have their own tables connected to the primary settings table.
I receive a bunch of excel files with items to be added to a database. some of the items are to be added as new, some to be deleted and others to be modified.
I identify the action (add/delete/modify) by looking at a column in the excel file e.g. column A.
At this point I am fine with the add/delete because I can filter the data or bring all the files to a temporary table in an Access database via vba script and then running queries to do the rest.
My issue is that the spreadsheets have a lot of columns and for the modifications what they do is use the same file for instance, make changes on the cells (any cell) that need modification and then highlight, bold or underline only the items that need modification and ignore the rest of the file (a tedious process since I have to then open each file and manually modify the database).
I have two sub forms on a main form.Subform 1 displays information which comes from a query, filtered using two combo boxes on the same form.The active record on the data sheet has two field values output to hidden text boxes on the form.
These text boxes then provide the values used for the query displayed on the 2nd sub form.When I highlight a new record in subform 1, the text box values change, but the values in sub form 2 do no.Which would be the best method to use to get this to requery?
